Rumor that Caroline Kennedy Will Get the VP Nod

by pshropshire
Fri Aug 22nd, 2008 at 01:16:19 PM EST

Well, I heard a rumor that Caroline Kennedy would get the vice  presidential nod from Obama. I think she would be a great choice. The only problem is that the rumor came from The Evil One, officially a member of The League of Evil Bloggers and who should join the Evil League of Evil because, let's face it, the Instapundit is qualified. I'm just saying that if Glenn Reynolds is spreading the rumor then that means incriminating photos are on hand about Caroline.

Appropriate Graphic For FISA Capitulation And Other DNC Sellout Moves

by pshropshire
Wed Jul 2nd, 2008 at 03:29:23 PM EST

Here's how I feel about the bipartisan FISA compromise. Its just that I'm beginning to think that if you have dual loyalties (you want to thank the republicans for this great proxy war against Iraq right?) or you're a corporate dem like Jason Altmire that you like being a bottom just a bit too much.

There is some evidence that the kind of suspected primary election fraud that the election fraud "community" (Bob Fitrakis of Free Press, Black Box Voting, Mark Crispin Miller and others who are largely unrebutted by the GOP) has noticed may have occurred in New Hampshire.(One.)

Your Daily Music Tune for the Day

by pshropshire
Tue Mar 6th, 2007 at 02:13:57 AM EST

This is a striking video with, perhaps, an implied political message about the war. You can judge for yourselves. The song is called "Province" by TV on the Radio. The backup vocals are provided by a little known British artist called "David Bowie". Philip Shropshire http://www.threeriversonline.com
